Recognition of prior learning (RPL) and licensed pathways
These pathway arrangements are generally one of two types:
- The local institution teaches its own curriculum, but Deakin pre-agrees (via an agreement) to provide credit (exemptions) for ‘like for like’ prior study when the student enrols at Deakin. This is called Recognition of prior learning (RPL).
- At times, institutions offer a licensed curriculum. Here, what is taught at the local partner mirrors that of Deakin’s curriculum, allowing for a much smoother transition to studies at Deakin University.
Please note, depending on the institution, RPL may sometimes be referred to as CPL (Credit for prior learning).
